Take the Bite Out of Mosquitoes Around Your Home

Summer is here and the mosquitoes have started biting. Summer rains lead to standing water, which is a primary location for mosquitoes to breed. It’s an important reminder to all homeowners that mosquitoes are not just a nuisance because of their bites; they are also known disease carriers.

Here are a few tips to help reduce the population of mosquitoes around your home:

If the weather has been rainy, be sure to drain standing water from bird baths, kiddie pools and plant pots on a weekly basis.

Clear gutters and drains to prevent the accumulation of stagnant water.

Avoid working or playing outdoors at dawn or dusk when mosquitoes are most active.

When you are outdoors, wear insect repellent with DEET as an active product.

Make sure all windows and doors in your home are closed tightly and that screens are well-sealed to prevent mosquitoes from getting inside.

There are 13 species of mosquitoes which are capable of transmitting diseases. If you want to reduce the mosquitoes around your home, call a professional service company for proper control and elimination. The experts at Massey Services can conduct a thorough inspection at no charge and provide you with a detailed report of their findings. We will also recommend a customized mosquito abatement program that’s right for your home.
